In 1888 at the age of 30, Wallace Abbott (1857"1921), an 1885 graduate of the University of Michigan, founded the Abbott Alkaloidal Company in Ravenswood, Chicago. At the time, he was a practicing physician & owned a drug store. His innovation was the use of the active part of a medicinal plant, generally an alkaloid (e.g., morphine, quinine, strychnine & codeine), which he formed into tiny "dosimetric granules". This approach was successful since it produced more consistent & effective dosages for patients. In 1922, the company moved from Ravenswood to North Chicago, Illinois.
